Harlan was born on April 29, 1944, in Dingess, WV, to Harlin and Virginia Grubb. He passed away surrounded by his loving family on July 29, 2024. Harlan was a veteran of the United States Army, retired from Averitt Lumber Company, and a member of Lone Oak Baptist Church. However, his greatest achievement was sharing with others the happiness of 56 years of marriage to his faithful and loving wife, Cecilia. Harlan loved spending time with his family and was a proud Pawpaw to all of his grandchildren. He especially enjoyed time with his siblings, nieces and nephews at the family hunting camp. Harlan liked being outdoors, hunting, and fishing.

He is survived by his wife of 56 years, Cecilia Travis Grubb; daughters: Carol Jarman, Debbie Mayberry, and Pam (Roger) Baggett; siblings: John (Jeanne) Grubb, Ada Travis, Donald Grubb, Geraldine Deyton, Maxine Williams, Jimmy (Susan) Grubb, Sue Grubb, and Rhonda Grubb; grandchildren: Nathan Jarman, Chassidy (Matt) Sinks, Caleb Christy, Angela (Johnny) Mayberry, Codie Kunstmann, Erica (Andy) Smith, Trevor (Madalyn) Mayberry, Lyndsey Baggett, Dillon Baggett, and Kayleigh Baggett; great-grandchildren: Kolby (Makayla) Baldwin, Bailey Sinks, Ruby Clark, Ollie Smith, Charlee Clark due August 2024, and Aeliana Stinnett; and great-great granddaughter, Sylvie Baldwin.
